Fans of the critically acclaimed open-world title, "The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt," can now try to finish the game as one of the female characters in the story, specifically Triss, Yennefer, Ciri, or Shani, thanks to the recently updated character model mod made by ParKan.

According to the creator, the mod still uses every aspect of Geralt — aside from the character model — like the battle animation, his dialogs and voice acting in all of the cutscenes. 

However, just like any other fan-made mods, this one also has some issues that could actually break the immersive experience for other hardcore players. It can still be entertaining to some players, though, especially those who don't actually mind the flaws of this mod. 

In addition to its animation and voice issues, ParKan notes that this mod will not work properly with the free DLCs Nilfgaardian, Temerian or Skellige armor sets and the New Game . Furthermore, the creator of the mod did not go into detail regarding incompatibility issues — if it will cause graphic/texture bugs to the model or if the game might crash randomly during the playthrough. 

As for its installation instruction, ParKan has instructed the fans to delete the previous version of this mod and replace it with the current one. After doing that, they can proceed to place the file aaa.bundle into the bundles directory of "The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt," which can be located at The Witcher 3contentcontent0bundles. 

Furthermore, after placing the bundle file into the directory, fans can continue to place the folders ModBodyHairScript and one of the head models for Triss, Ciri, Yennefer, or Shani into the mod folder of the game that is located at The Witcher 3Mods. 

To apply this mod to "TW3," gamers must first open the console command window by pressing F2 and entering the model codes, which can be seen in the official post on Nexus Mod.
